When Fry asked the What If machine what would've happened if he didn't freeze himself and wake up in the year 3000, Hawking visits Panucci's Pizza and Fry asks him about the rip in space caused by Fry not falling into the cryogenic tube. Later, Hawking and the VPAR kidnap Fry to try and ensure that the space-time continuum is undamaged, but are unable to determine the correct course of action quickly enough to keep the universe from imploding. They become trapped in a state of non-being and are forced to play Dungeons & Dragons for eternity.

By the 31st century, Stephen Hawking's head had been preserved in a jar. Hawking led the scientific convention about the anomaly known as SPACENOMALY '08. He claimed he knew nothing about the anomaly but did make money from a book he wrote about it. When Professors Farnsworth and Wernstrom began to fight, Hawking broke up the argument by shooting freeze beams at them (an ability that Hawking himself confessed he didn't know he possessed) and suggesting that they settle it like men of science in a match of Deathball. During that time, Stephen Hawking's Head had some device around his neck to help him speak.
